Workshop 3: 19th March - Learning the language of shadow - with Teresa Wilson
LEARNING THE LANGUAGE OF SHADOW - WITH TERESA WILSON ON TUES 19TH MARCH 18.00-19.30 ONLINE
Who we are is how we coach – but who are you? You are all that you know yourself to be – all that is available to you from your field of conscious awareness – and you are so much more besides. You are also formed and informed by all that is held in your unconscious. Far from being a passive repository, your unconscious – or shadow material – plays an active part in shaping your preferences, likes, dislikes, biases and more.
As coaches, developing presence (over persona) is an on-going journey; so learning the language of shadow is a way to deepen our understanding of the unconscious triggers that might take us out of presence at any moment. This workshop will introduce the four P’s of shadow language – Projection, Polarity, Parts and Patterns – allowing you to deepen your reflective skills and increase your presence in the coaching relationship

“I loved it from the moment go.”
“I thought this was a fascinating session that reframed the shadow for me - from a dark and negative/shameful place to "an incredible resource" as Teresa put it. Teresa's stories about her journey really resonated with me and her exercises on projection and polarities were very thought-provoking, leaving much to reflect on."
"The subject of the talk was enigmatic and intriguing. The talk was fascinating and full of gold nuggets and of personal gentle challenges. It has made me reflect deeply and start discovering my shadow with kindness.”
